Hire project managers who keep software delivery on track

Senior technical project managers and delivery leads who run Jira, release plans, risks and vendor coordination for your engineering teams.

Ryz places senior project managers and delivery leads on your team for $7,000 to $15,000 per person per month, and you meet a shortlist of named candidates before you sign. They are top 1% of the candidates we interview, have run real software releases, and work on US business hours. Ryz also places technical program managers and product managers in the same price range.

What our project managers work on

Our project managers sit between engineering, product and the business. They own the plan and the schedule, so your engineers can focus on building. Common work:

Project manager, technical program manager or product manager?

Ryz places all three, at the same $7,000 to $15,000 monthly band, and the titles get mixed up, so here is how we split them:

If you need someone to lead engineers and their growth, see engineering managers. For technical direction on a codebase, see tech leads.

What happens after you ask for a project manager

Talk: how many teams, which methodology, your tools and where delivery breaks today. Match: you get a price, a written scope and the project managers we would place, chosen for programs like yours. Join: your Jira, Confluence, Slack and ceremonies. Grow: add engineers, QA or a dedicated team around them. If a project manager is not the right fit, we replace them free.

Skills we vet for

How we vet project managers

Our recruiters look for project managers who have shipped software programs and can explain what went wrong as well as what went right. ARC, our in-house system, ranks the pipeline. Candidates complete structured NTRVSTA AI interviews on planning, risk and stakeholder scenarios. Recruiters review every candidate before and after, and you get a curated shortlist. AI scores are advisory. People decide.

Project managers for hire: one PM or a delivery lead for a team

Most clients hire a project manager for one program, such as a migration or a launch. Others hire project managers to cover several teams, or want to hire a technical project manager who can read architecture diagrams and sit in design reviews. Our project managers for hire work remotely on US hours, so if you want to hire remote project managers or hire dedicated project managers who stay with one program from start to finish, both work the same way.

Why hire project managers from Latin America

Many project managers in the region have run delivery for US companies across time zones, often coordinating engineering teams in several countries at once. They are used to writing status for US executives and running ceremonies in English.

Because they work US business hours, they are online for your morning standup and your afternoon stakeholder call. Risks get raised the same day, not in tomorrow's update.

The kind of program a project manager keeps on track

Consider the marketing compliance review system our engineers built for a leading alternative asset manager. It reviews each document section against internal rule sets with embeddings and an LLM, across 8,000+ marketing documents a year, and review that took days now takes hours. A program like that involves compliance, marketing, engineering and the client's cloud team. Keeping those groups aligned on scope, milestones and sign-offs is exactly a project manager's job.

FAQ

Can I hire a project manager on their own, or only with engineers?

Either. You can hire a single project manager for your existing teams, or add one as the delivery lead on a dedicated team.

Do you have technical project managers for hire?

Yes. We screen for technical fluency: environments, CI/CD, APIs and release mechanics, so they can spot risks your engineers would raise. If the work spans several teams, a technical program manager is usually the better fit.

What does it cost to hire a project manager through Ryz?

$7,000 to $15,000 per person per month, scoped per team. You get a plan, a price and the names of the people who would do the work before you sign.

What hours do your project managers work?

US business hours, including New York hours. Ryz project managers work on your team, reporting to your leads. Talk to us to scope your team.

Which methodologies and tools do they use?

Scrum, Kanban and hybrids, mostly in Jira and Confluence, with Linear, Asana or Azure DevOps when that is what your teams use.
